Heat of Combustion Calculator

Find energy released per mole of fuel.

Heat of combustion (kJ/mol) 890

Formula: heat of combustion = energy ÷ moles

Step-by-step with your numbers:
1. Values used:
2. Energy released = 890 kJ
3. Amount burned = 1 mol
4.
5. Heat of combustion = Energy released x Amount burned = 890 x 1 = 890kJ/mol
Did we solve your problem today?

The energy released when one mole of a substance burns completely.

The math behind it

heat of combustion = total energy released ÷ moles burned.

Worked example

890 kJ from 1 mol methane → 890 kJ/mol.
